1inch, the DeFi ecosystem and decentralized exchange aggregator, will co-host Groundwork, a one-day forum on October 16, 2026, in Washington, DC, as part of DC Fintech Week. The event will bring together students, policymakers, professors and DeFi builders through seven panels, six roundtables and student-moderated sessions. Key speakers include Orest Gavryliak, Chief Legal Officer of 1inch, alongside representatives from Uniswap, Circle and Robinhood Crypto, with faculty from Columbia, NYU, Rutgers and George Mason. The forum extends the 1inch Forward initiative, launched in March 2026 with over 20 DeFi projects advocating for digital assets education in US law and business schools. The forum aims to connect younger participants with current policymakers as regulatory debates over digital assets and DeFi become increasingly relevant.
